On May 29, 2026, in Modesto, California, Joaquin Escoto, 28, a Mexican national and illegal immigrant, was arrested and charged with three counts of murder.

He allegedly stabbed to death Fabiola Gonzalez, 23, a devoted mother, her own mother, and loving grandmother Silvia Nuñez, 54, and Fabiola’s 2-week-old infant son, Mateo Gonzalez.

A surviving child of approximately  4 years old was found in the home and taken into custody by Child Protective Services.

According to The California Post, California’s controversial state sanctuary law obstructed federal authorities who sought to deport him.

The New York Post reports:

On the day of Escoto’s DUI arrest in June, which occurred in San Joaquin County, federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials requested to be notified of the Modesto resident’s release from jail so they could deport him again, according to the official.

But San Joaquin law enforcement officials hogtied by California’s contested sanctuary law failed to notify the feds, and Escoto was set free, the official said.

“Safe to say, California law prohibited the jail from complying,” said the official, who shared police documents that substantiated his claims with The Post.

Now, less than one year after that request from ICE agents was ignored, Escoto is being held without bail on three counts of murder in the grisly knife slaying in Modesto of an infant and two women, including one with whom he allegedly had a child, according to police.

A GoFundMe set up to help cover funeral expenses, shares:

Our family is experiencing a heartbreaking loss that words cannot adequately express.

On May 28, 2026, three beloved members of our family was taken from us: Silvia Nuñez, a loving grandmother whose kindness and strength touched everyone around her. Fabiola Gonzalez, a devoted mother, daughter, and loved one who brought joy and love to those fortunate enough to know her and baby Mateo Gonzalez, an innocent child whose life was taken far too soon.

The devastating circumstances surrounding this tragedy have left our family shattered. In a single moment, generations of love, memories, and dreams for the future were taken from us. As we grieve the loss of Silvia, Fabiola, and baby Mateo, we are trying to navigate the emotional and financial burdens that come with such an unimaginable tragedy.

We are asking for help to cover funeral and memorial expenses, counseling and support services for the family, and immediate needs for those affected by this loss. Every contribution, no matter the amount, will help ease the burden during this incredibly difficult time. Silvia was a cherished grandmother who loved her family deeply. Fabiola was a devoted mother whose love for her children was endless. Mateo was a precious baby whose smile and innocence brought happiness to everyone around him. They will forever remain in our hearts and will never be forgotten.

If you are unable to donate, we ask that you please share this fundraiser and keep our family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support as we honor the lives of Silvia, Fabiola, and Mateo.

California has blown $49 million from its cap-and-trade slush fund to install free solar panels, new refrigerators, windows, and other energy upgrades on the homes of illegal alien farmworkers, all while legal residents, seniors, and veterans face skyrocketing energy bills and waitlists for basic assistance.

The program, officially the Farmworker Housing Component of the Low-Income Weatherization Program (LIWP Farmworker), explicitly welcomes illegal aliens with zero requirement for legal citizenship status.

According to a bombshell report from City Journal, California’s Department of Community Services and Development (CSD) openly acknowledges in its own documentation that non-citizens are eligible and that the program accepts foreign government identification, including the widely used Mexican matrícula consular card issued to migrants who crossed the border illegally.

Program contractors have confirmed this on Spanish-language radio and to investigators, “Participants do not need ‘legal status’ in the United States.”

Launched in 2019, the program is funded through California’s multibillion-dollar cap-and-trade scheme.

This system slaps extra taxes on carbon producers, driving up gas prices by at least 20 cents per gallon, and funnels roughly $3 billion annually into “green energy” and left-wing social spending.

So far, $49 million has been earmarked specifically for farmworker weatherization.

Only about 2,000 families have actually received the upgrades after nearly seven years. That works out to a staggering $23,000 per household for free solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, refrigerators, water heaters, windows, insulation, and other perks, all installed at zero cost to the recipient.

The state selected La Cooperativa Campesina de California, a nonprofit that claims to serve farmworkers, as the program administrator with an initial award of at least $10.7 million.

La Cooperativa then partnered with MAROMA Energy Services, a self-described “minority owned” for-profit company, which has received nearly $34 million from the nonprofit since 2017 for “weatherization services.”

Contractors under MAROMA actually perform the installations.

These organizations have aggressively marketed the taxpayer-funded freebies directly into California’s massive agricultural workforce of nearly 900,000 workers, of whom half to three-quarters are estimated to be in the country illegally.

Outreach includes sending representatives into farmworker communities and running Spanish-language radio spots to verify eligibility for non-citizens.

While illegal aliens get rooftop solar panels courtesy of California taxpayers, the state’s legal residents face some of the highest electricity rates in the nation, rolling blackouts, and endless green mandates that drive up costs.

Veterans, seniors on fixed incomes, and working-class families often cannot qualify for similar assistance or face long delays.

In March, 18-year-old Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman was shot and killed near the Chicago campus by one of Joe Biden’s illegals.

The masked gunman approached a group of students walking in the Rogers Park neighborhood and opened fire, shooting Gorman in the head. She died at the scene.

A few days after the murder, it was confirmed that the masked gunman who killed Gorman is a 25-year-old illegal alien from Venezuela who entered the US under the Biden Regime.

Police took Jose Medina-Medina into custody, facing charges of first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, aggravated assault, and weapons charges.

Now, Medina is facing new charges after being found with a weapon in jail.

According to CBS News, Sheriff Tom Dart said staff found a six-inch shank in his possession around 8 a.m. Thursday.

Per CBS:

After staff at the Cook County Jail were tipped off about the shank, they searched him and found a sharpened piece of metal with a handle made of medical tape in his pants pocket, Dart said.

Medina has been in custody since March 23 as he awaits trial for Gorman’s death.

Friday, the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office approved a felony charge of possession of contraband in a penal institution Friday.

Earlier this month, President Trump invited Sheridan’s family to speak at a rally in  Suffern, New York.

Gorman’s mother and father shared the stage with her sister and another young woman, both of whom were holding pictures of Sheridan. Both parents questioned how local leaders could let this happen to their young daughter and why the fight to protect American citizens “belongs to only one party.”

“She was gunned down by an illegal alien monster in cold blood,” Trump told the crowd at Rockland Community College.

“This savage animal, who stole Sheridan’s life, entered illegally from Venezuela and was released into our country by Crooked Joe Biden, and that whole Biden administration of thieves and criminals. He was then arrested and released again by Dumocrat Governor JP Pritzker, a terrible governor, has no idea what’s going on in the sanctuary city of Chicago. Sanctuary cities protect criminals. They’re a sanctuary for criminals, not for people like you, like us.”

Breaking into tears, Jessica Gorman, the mother of the slain teen, thanked President Trump and lawmakers for fighting to protect American citizens from the illegal alien thugs terrorizing American communities, then eviscerated the leadership in Chicago for giving refuge to Sheridan’s murderer.

“Mother’s Day was just two weeks ago. For most mothers, it meant flowers and cards and phone calls, or children coming home. For me, it was heartache and tears because on March 19, my beautiful daughter, Sheridan Grace Gorman, was murdered in cold blood,” Jessica told the crowd, fighting through tears.

“No mother should ever have to wonder if her child called out for her in her final moments. No mother should ever have to imagine her baby lying alone and bleeding on the cold pavement, and no family should ever have to bury a child because public officials failed to put innocent American lives first,” she said.

America’s most infamous tech company has a bold, potentially risky plan to supposedly reduce the spread of mosquito-borne illnesses, assuming the federal government will sign off on the proposal.

As The New York Post reported, Google wants federal approval to unleash approximately 32 MILLION mosquitoes into the states of California and Florida over the next two years.

This is supposedly part of an effort to halt the spread of several serious mosquito-borne illnesses, including West Nile virus, St. Louis encephalitis, dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and yellow fever.

The Google researchers particularly focused on West Nile and St. Louis encephalitis. The former is the leading mosquito-borne disease in the US and is widespread in California amongst local bird and mosquito populations.

The Post notes that the project is part of Google’s Debug initiative, which was launched more than a decade ago.

More from the Post on how this plan would work:

Researchers say the latest proposal targets Culex mosquitoes, a species known for transmitting West Nile virus and St. Louis encephalitis.

Rather than releasing biting insects, the company plans to release male mosquitoes infected with Wolbachia, a naturally occurring bacteria. When the infected males mate with wild female mosquitoes, the offspring do not survive, helping suppress mosquito populations over time.

Because only female mosquitoes bite humans, experts say the releases would not increase the number of biting mosquitoes.

Google claims that artificial intelligence and robotic systems would be used to breed, sort, and release the mosquitoes.

The Post reports that the proposal is currently being considered by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which is accepting public comments through June 5 before deciding whether to issue an experimental use permit.

Last week, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin angrily shot down wild social media rumors that the agency was planning to release 2 billion genetically modified mosquitoes into Florida and elsewhere.

While this does not conclusively prove that the EPA is leaning one way or another regarding Google’s plan, it suggests Zeldin could be opposed.

ENTIRELY fake news! At no point since President Trump was sworn back into office has the Trump EPA authorized the release of ANY genetically modified mosquitoes into Florida or anywhere else for that matter. So much fake news BS being peddled on social media for RTs, Likes, and… https://t.co/UML3yV4Nj7

Another blow to the ‘cosa nostra’.

It’s a never-ending battle between Italian law enforcement and the organized crime families controlling parts of the country, notably in the Mediterranean island of Sicily.

Today it arises that Italian authorities have seized over 200 million euros ($232 million) in assets linked to the late mafia boss Matteo Messina Denaro’s drug trafficking network.

It’s what anti-mafia prosecutors described as a hit to the Sicilian Mafia’s financial power.

Associated Press reported:

“The seizures included more than 12 kilograms (26 pounds) in gold bars, millions in cash, premium watches and some 20 luxury properties, investigators told a news conference.

Messina Denaro died in a prison hospital some nine months after he was arrested in January 2023, ending three decades as a fugitive. He had been tried in absentia and convicted in dozens of murders, including helping to mastermind a pair of 1992 bombings that killed top anti-Mafia prosecutors Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino.”
